1.3 CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENTS
In this project, there are many construction equipments used for making concrete, to transfer
materials, etc.
1.3.1 BOOM LIFTER
A boom lifter is a mechanical device used to provide temporary access for people or equipment to
inaccessible areas, usually at height. There are distinct types of mechanized access platforms and
the individual types may also be known as a "cherry picker" or a "scissor lift".
They are generally used for temporary, flexible access purposes such
as maintenance and construction work or by firefighters foremergency access, which distinguishes
them from permanent access equipment such as elevators. They are designed to lift limited
weights — usually less than a ton, although some have a higher safe working load (SWL)[1]
—
distinguishing them from most types of cranes. They are usually capable of being set up and
operated by a single person.
1.4 Structural Highlights
The structure of the International Airport os completely a green building design .
The major things used in the construction is steel, glass and aluminum casings.
The structure has a combination of combined footing and isolated on a raft type
foundation spread over all.
The structure has 27 columns completely made of steel supported by a base plate.
Each column is made up of steel coated with fire resistant paint . No RCC columns
are used whatsoever.
The columns are hollow with a thickness of 25mm.
8. 8
The whole steel structure is supported by 27 hollow steel columns . The four legs
merge on top of the column on top of which truss and purlins are supported.
The whole building plan has been divided into different zones for aiding the
construction purpose. At every zone a column is present.
1.5ROOF
It has been done in different layers
Bottom sheet with perforations(0.5mm thick)
Acoustic paper- for sound proofing. Not woven and 0.1mm thick
Rock Wool- density= 48kg/m3 and thickness= 50mm
Rock wool with aluminum foil
Vapour barrier- polythene – 400 gauge over insulation
Top Sheet- thickness is 0.6mm and yield strength is 300mpa
1.6 GLAZING
The whole building has glazing overall with toughened glass.
DGU - Double glass units.
The glazing is supported by aluminum frames of bolts with 4 bolts in mullion and 7 bolts in
transom.
For better appearance the screws are having a cap called bins.
DGU – there are two glasses and in between is vacuum and is sealed using vacuum.
9. 9
1.7 ROADS
Most of the roads are cemented and are made from concrete.
Since the soil is clayey, the layers are layered as follows with a road width of 7.5m and
depth of excavation as 1.2m.
The base is good earth , then morram , then wet mix maccadum and then pqc top.
The road is bounded by curved stone ie 15cm above road.
The parking area has grass track pavers and CC pavers.
1.8 ACP(ALUMINUM COMPOSITE PANEL)
It is mostly used for decorative purpose
It is not corrosive.
Can be molded into required shape.
Eg according to site it is used outside below roofs to get a catchy look.
The two adjacent plates are kept 6 inches apart and joint using steel rods. The steel is
joined to M-S purlins which are extended from truss. The steel joint is filled with black
silicon to get an even look.

2.2 CLIENT AND CONTRACTOR
Client : SAM INDIA
2.3 CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENTS
In this project, there are many construction equipments used for making concrete, to transfer
materials, etc.
1.3.1 Ready Mix Concrete:
Ready mixed refers to concrete that is batched for delivery from a central plant instead
of being mixed on the job site. Each batch of ready-mixed concrete is tailor-made
according to the specifics of the contractor and is delivered to the contractor in a plastic
condition, usually in the cylindrical trucks often known as "cement mixers."
Ready-mixed concrete is particularly advantageous when small quantities of concrete or
intermittent placing of concrete are required. Ready-mixed concrete is also ideal for
large jobs where space is limited and there is little room for a mixing plant and
aggregate stockpiles.
1.3.2Transit Mixture:
Transit Mixer is a strong well - designed piece of equipment meant for
transporting concrete / mortar from concrete batching plant directly to the
place where it is to be poured. It has a wide range of application specially for
mass concreting works like Construction of Canals, Bridges, Highways,
Dams, Multistoried & Industrial Buildings, Factories, Airports and for Ready
Mixed Concrete Works
1.3.3 Fixed Tower Crane :
Tower cranes are a modern form of balance crane that consist of the same
basic parts. Fixed to the ground on a concrete slab (and sometimes attached
to the sides of structures as well), tower cranes often give the best
13. 13
combination of height and lifting capacity and are used in the construction of
tall buildings. The base is then attached to the mast which gives the crane
its height. Further the mast is attached to the slewing unit (gear and motor)
that allows the crane to rotate. On top of the slewing unit there are three
main parts which are: the long horizontal jib (working arm), shorter counter-
jib, and the operators cab.
In order to hook and unhook the loads, the operator usually works in
conjunction with a signaller (known as a 'dogger', 'rigger' or 'swamper').
They are most often in radio contact, and always use hand signals. The
rigger or dogger directs the schedule of lifts for the crane, and is responsible
for the safety of the rigging and loads.
1.3.4 Concrete Vibrators :
Concrete vibrators consolidate freshly poured concrete so that trapped air and excess water are
released and the concrete settles firmly in place in the formwork. Improper consolidation of
concrete can cause product defects, compromise the concrete strength, and produce surface
blemishes such as bug holes and honeycombing. An internal concrete vibrator is a steel cylinder
about the size of the handle of a baseball bat, with a hose or electrical cord attached to one end.
The vibrator head is immersed in the wet concrete.
In the site the vibrator was used to make checkered tiles.
Checkered tiles
Size -300*300*40 mm
First in mold the colored concrete is poured mixed with white cement till 7mm height and
then normal concrete poured for rest 33mm height. The mold is passed on table vibrator.
Final setting time is 24 hrs.
Mold is removed and curing is done for 7-10 days.

2.4 PRODUCTION OF CONCRETE
1.4.1 Concrete Ingredients :
Source of coarse & fine aggregates shall be approved by contractor engineers before any
activities like starting of mix design etc started & all other materials would be supplied as per
approved make. Brand of Cement and admixtures are as per the contract.
1.4.2 Cement :
The cement used is Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) of GRADE 43.
1.4.3 Coarse Aggregate :
The maximum size of coarse aggregate shall be such that the concrete can be placed without
difficulty so as to surround all reinforcement thoroughly and fill the corners of formwork.
1.4.4 Fine Aggregate :
15. 15
The fine aggregate shall be river sand, normal sand,.
1.4.5 Water:
Water to be used in the works shall be portable water and free from deleterious materials.
1.4.6 Admixtures:
Admixtures used for setting time and also for other purposes. For different work we used
different admixtures.
2.5 REINFORCEMENT
Came to know about different types of reinforcement.
We saw about the different lappings in reinforcement. Came to know about main
and secondary rings.
Bar bending schedule calculation
We learnt all the necessary concepts.
Eg calculations
Substrut=5000-2(50)+2(300)-6d
Nos. = 10000/200
=50+1=51
Let d=6
Covers – may vary according to column, beam and slab.
Different types of rings and their calculations
Eg
L=600-2(40)=520
16. 16
B=2(l+6)+16d
=2(520+220)+16*8
2.6CLC Bricks
Today we learnt and practically analyzed the manufacturing of CLC bricks.
CLC- cellular light weight concrete bricks
It is made up of cement and fly ash (1:2)
Primary mix- fly ash +water
Secondary mix- cement + accelerator + foaming agent
The mixture is put in molds and initial setting is allowed. Then it is demolded and cut into
required shape and sizes. Then steam curing is done at 70-80 degree for 7-8 hours.
Density of the CLC brick comes out to be 800kg/m3.
Strength of clc bricks is 3.4-3.5mpa, which is less but it is no problem as these are filler
walls that is building is supported on columns and not on walls.
Drawbacks-use of less mortar because size of bricks is large and cracks might occur.
Advantages-
Fire resistance
Sound proof
Water resistant
2.7FOUNDATION
We started on foundations .
Chair- to keep the upper reinforcement in place.
When there is column only lower reinforcement is required and when there is
empty space only lower reinforcement is required.
Footing is cast using shuttering. After one day shuttering is removed and curing is
started.
17. 17
Layout of column
First a small 50mm part is cast for funneling towards center of column on the
footing. Then the shuttering is placed around the column. Concrete is poured using
crane and bucket. Cover blocks are used and are placed around the steel rods
before the shuttering is placed. It prevents the shuttering to tilt and damage the
column.
The column is first casted to a height of 2.9m and the other .6m is casted.
2.8SAFETY
Safety is defined as to protect from accident, injury, damage from material, machinery, etc.
SAFETY = Stay Alert For Every Task You Do
Walking in middle of roads.
Don’t walk on edges.
Look all sides and above before entering and leaving a building.
Some personal protective equipments (PPE): provided by site
Helmet
Goggles
18. 18
Safety Belt
Hand Gloves
PROJECT AT A GLANCE
CONCLUSION:-
It was a wonderful learning experience at SAM INDIA for Four Weeks. I gained a
lot of insight regarding almost every aspect of site. I was given exposure in almost
all the departments at the site, but I had liked to highlight the areas of safety, quality
management, material management and execution.
19. 19
I hope this experience will surely help me in my future and also in shaping my
career.
